I take the 4 top homerun hitters from each league that made the all-star game

On the 1-20 ratings scale i check each players power.

eg:
Player A - 16
Player B - 10
Player C - 20

I then double their power.

Player A - 32
Player B - 20
Player C - 40

Then i go to random.org and using their 1-100 integer generator on the main page I click.

when player A is up, anything 1-32 is a homerun. 33-100 is an out.

10 outs a round.


It works fairly well and realistic in my experience. I've seen 0 rounds and monster 18 homer rounds.
Great method, a much easier alternative to setting up a whole new league for it.
